Dear Walter:

I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help.

When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was parading in front of the wardrobe mirror dressed in my underwear and high-heel shoes, and he was wearing my make up.

I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years. When I confronted him, he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie because he couldn't find his own underwear. But when I asked him about the make up, he broke down and admitted that he'd been wearing my clothes for six months. I told him to stop or I would leave him.

He was let go from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore. Can ou please help?

Sincerely,
Norma




Dear Norma:

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the jubilee clips holding
the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber. I hope this helps.

Strung Out
"Sound" advice...

Dear Abby...

I think my wife is cheating on me. I am a working
musician and, as you would expect, travel a lot. I have been noticing
strange things happening when I get home. Her mobile phone rings and
she steps outside to answer it or she says, "I'll call you back
later". When I ask her who called she gets evasive.
Sometimes she goes out with friends but comes home
late, getting dropped off around the corner and walking the rest of
the way.

I once picked up the extension while she was on the
phone and she got very angry.
A buddy of mine plays guitar in a band. He told me
that my wife and some guy have been to his gigs.
He wanted to borrow my guitar amp. That's when I got
the idea to find out for myself what was really happening. I said
"sure, you can use my amp but I want to hide behind it at the gig and
see if she comes into the venue and who she comes in with". He agreed.
Saturday night came and I slipped behind my Marshall
JCM800 half stack to get a good view. I could feel the heat coming off
the back of the amp. It was at that moment, crouching down behind the
amp, that I noticed that one of the tubes was not glowing as
bright as the other 3.
Is this something I can fix myself or do need to take
it to a technician?

Thanks
Very Concerned.

DEAR MARGO: Help! I am a 31-year-old married mother of three wonderful kids, ages 13, 10 and 7. I have a great husband whom I am deeply in love with. We have been married for 11 years. He's a wonderful provider, and he works while I go to school full time.

Our marriage is great; we are best friends. My only problem with the marriage is that we do not have enough sex. It's maybe three or four times a month. It is killing me. I have talked and talked to him about it, but he still thinks we have no problem. I can tell he is no longer sexually attracted to me.

On the other hand, I have this man in my life with whom I have been having an affair for 16 years. He has been with me through thick and thin. When I got pregnant at 17, he did a marvelous job of being a father figure for my daughter, even though he was not her father.

Our relationship is strong in every way. We date and get together as often as we can. He is married and has offered to leave his wife. He says he loves me, and I care for him also. I just want to know if having a fully satisfying sex life is as important as a good marriage. I could live the rest of my life content with both of them.


--- WIFE WITH TWO HUSBANDS

DEAR WIFE: It really does sound as if you have two husbands -- and your affair has gone on longer than your marriage. It's possible your husband may be onto this, uh, situation, which might explain why he is not so responsive to you.

As a general answer, I would say a good marriage is more important than a satisfying sex life, but the two often go together. I will undoubtedly catch hell for this, but if you can successfully continue to juggle your two lives, you would not be the first, so I'm gonna take the coward's way out and let you decide this on your own.
